1-[(6-Chloropyridin-3-yl)methyl]imidazolidin-2-one

Abstract

In the title molecule, C9H10ClN3O, the dihedral angle between the pyridine ring and imidazoline ring mean plane [maximum deviation = 0.031–(3) Å] is 76.2 (1)°. In the crystal, N—H...O hydrogen bonds link pairs of molecules to form inversion dimers. In addition, weak C—H...N hydrogen bonds and π–π stacking interactions between pyridine rings [centroid–centroid distance = 3.977 (2) Å] are observed
